Paul and David went to the shore today for a couple of days. They will be home Saturday afternoon. Yeah! Peace and quiet! Picked Mom and Uncle up from airport last night around 11pm. Kona is happy to have me all to herself now. Will need to take her for a long walk later to get my exercise in and may do some Wii Fit. Will be staying up late and getting some work done. Need to make sure I get to my 10,000 steps. Work is rough. I have the Eastern 1/2 of PA by myself. There were multiple fires in Harrisburg and York last night and tornadoes up north in Stroudsburg. So things are not going to let up for me any time soon. I made some homemade pasta primavera the other night with that zucchini. Bow tie pasta with tomatoes, zucchini, chicken, carrots, peas. I didn't have any peppers. But it was good. So I think I will eat some left overs for dinner. I need to bump up the fruits and veggies and water. So tomorrow and the rest of the weekend, that is my focus. I will go to the farmers market tomorrow and stock up. So game plan for rest of week: fruits, veggies, water, exercise. Today I had a bagel with cream cheese, coffee and some 94% fat free popcorn. Will probably eat my pasta primavera for dinner. Then will snack on fruits and veggies (watermelon, strawberries, carrots) tongiht while I am working.

Glad you have some precious time to yourself! Take a breath in the middle of it and really soak it in. Sorry work is so crazy - that sounds challenging.
Ever try the whole wheat pastas made from 100% whole grains? At first you notice the difference, and then after a while you prefer it. I like spaghetti squash too!
Good luck getting in the exercise! I will be complaining away about my exercise tonight, I\'m sure!
I love whole wheat bread and rolls and pretzels and all kinds of things. But I cannot handle the whole wheat pasta. It just tastes like cardboard. Can\'t seem to find a good brand. I even have paid extra thinking a named brand will taste better. Nope! Trader Joes has these multigrain waffles that are to die for. Why can\'t I find good whole wheat pasta?
Great move on getting more fruits and veggies. Looks like you are getting a handle on this eating healthy!
Enjoy you time alone the Kona!
Nice to have a couple of days to yourself, very nice. Glad you have some quiet time. I love all your goals, I know you can do it! You have come so far, keep it up! Your doing great with your food choices and getting your walks in with Kona. Sorry about being so busy with work. Hope Paul and David have a good time. Hang in there and enjoy the quiet time.
Hope your having a nice time and hope Paul and David had a good time together. Love all your comments, your such a sweet caring person. Hope work is good! Bet Kona just lays at your feet thinking how lucky she is to have you!! Bet that sunroom of yours is great - I can see it now. Hope your weekend is good and thanks again for being YOU!
